Anniversary Time

.
Today, I am forty-one years old.

I don't know what I think about it yet, but first thing this morning, these lyrics came into my head...

"...another year older and deeper in debt*"


So. Not good?



* from "Sixteen Tons", by Merle Travis, written in 1946.

Happy Birthday! My dad used to sing that sing a lot when I was little--it made me laugh. Perhaps you should try replacing it with this song or this one (my own personal anthem).

It's better to be a year older than to wake up to the alternative. Actually, I don't guess you would "wake up" to the alternative.
Happy Birthday!!!
